Chapter 440 (1/2)
16-34 Garleon Union (10)
Satou here It's quite hard to produce results that can make the client 100 satisfied That is because, oftenti there is to it to their demand; their true demand lies implied beyond their words
“Adon, look at that!”
The navigator called for my attention with a desperate look on his face
Right when the tide had almost completely turned to our favor at the coastal waters of Garleok City, a gigantic ghost shi+p charged forward alone toward our shi+p, the fleet's flagshi+p
“It has the Skeleton Archduke flag on it!”
This seems to be a ploy by the Skeleton Archduke
“I am Heaven Dweller, I know no defeat!”
The gigantic ghost shi+p opened its bow like a shark and then several shi+ps flew out of it
Those shi+ps look familiar
“–Pirate shi+ps?”
“Adht with!”
“There are some Union's escort's shi+ps too!”
It's just as the first antic ghost shi+p's ed to the pirate fleet and the escort fleet
The fake Skeleton Archduke youngpirate shi+p
“What sinister looks…”
And those shi+ps have all been turned into ghost shi+ps
The fake Skeleton Archduke seees with hollow eyes
“This is the power of Skeleton Archduke…”
Voices filled with fear leak out of the flagshi+p crew
This could get a bit bad if it kept up
“KARINAKIIIIIIIIIIICK!”
Lady Karina who has acco kick frohost shi+ps
Then it pierced through not one, not two but three shi+ps all at once
Really, this scene looks similar to one from a classic masterpiece anime
Eventually, Lady Karina sunk into the ocean while leaving a huge water column behind
Looks like she did the kick without thinking what to do at the end
That really is like Lady Karina
“Splaa~sh”
“Oh no nanodesu! Karina is drowning nodesuyo!”
The tere done with their propaganda work showed their face froazed at the water column Lady Karina created
“Sorry, but could you help collect Karinsama for me?”
“Nininin~?”
“Pochi will go to nodesu!”
As ic Hand] can't reach that far, I ask Tama and Pochi to deal with the rescue
“WOOOOOOOO!”
“Kicking Princess went and did it!”
Lady Karina's reckless abandon quickly raised the flagshi+p crew morale
『Cull?』
『Yea, please do』
I gave estion
Now that the host shi+ps with Garuda's finishi+ng move
It may not conform with God Garleon's order, but faith and prayers to God Garleon should have increased enough after this ht to a battle with underwater undeads if this continued on
『Tempest』
The golden feathers of Garuda fly around as they cut up the pirate ghost fleet everywhere
That's what I call a big haul
“–Hostile on starboard!”
The navigator suddenly shouted
Looks like the gigantic Ghost shi+p is trying to forcefully push its way through Tempest and ram us
『I won't let you!』
A goleot in the way of the gigantic Ghost shi+p, but due to the huge difference in antic ra horn and sunk
Though, thanks to that, our shi+p narrowly avoided the ra sunk despite the intense sparks produced fro shi+p's flank
“You lots, attack!”
Ghost sailors with scishi+p (ours)
“Filthy undeads! Extolled at Garleon Temple, I–”
The Te himself
Since this seems to be the final clash, I also draw my Fairy Blade and intercept the undead next to the Teht Commander
“You must be the 『Golden Wheel』 master!”
Skeleton Archduke carrying a bluish black adaht Commander
Looks like he mistook the Commander for me
“You leader!”
Tee blocked a black string-like thing
That black string comes from the Skeleton Archduke's shadow
Since the Archduke doesn't seem to be a reincarnated person, hein his shadow
I observe their fight while kicking and slashi+ng the incohts with my Fairy Sword
“Nuu”
Skeleton Archduke's rapier went for the kinks in commander's armor faster than the commander could back step
However, that rapier was blocked by a protective filht Commander used
“Hic huh!”
The Skeleton Archduke groaned, and then a crowd of beast-like Ghoul appeared behind hiht Commander
“You damn coward!”
“Ridiculous! I'htly etiquette have no place here!”
Skeleton Archduke laughed off the commander's protest
Well then, that means it's fine for me to intervene too
“Let me help”
I flashed the Fairy Sword and turned the Ghouls back into corpses one after another
“Gununu, are you a knight serving the 『Golden Wheel』 master!”
“No, I'm that master in the flesh”
I take out the [Golden Wheel] from my bosom and let the Skeleton Archduke take a peek on it
“HANDITOVEEEEEEEER”
Skeleton Archduke is lunging atblack aura
I exchanged swords with Skeleton Archduke while juhost shi+p and the flagshi+p, scattering red and black sparks all the while
After a few hundreds clashes, Skeleton Archduke stopped and opened hisa weird pose
“You ht on par with this strongest swordsman of Lalakie with a sword!”
“Don't thinkto do with h”
“Silence! Die by my sword, lowborn!”
Skeleton Archduke is enraged whilesuspiciously
“–Phantoe!”
He unleashed a buckshot like multi-stab attack clad in dark red aura
Looks like his queer pose earlier was the initial move of his finisher
With the fairy sword in hand, I duteously parry all the stabs of what seems to be the Skeleton Archduke's finisher
Man, the sparks are dazzling
This should be a good time to lower the veil of this battle
“This cannot be! A savage's bastard sword parrying my blade, me a Heaven Dweller?!”
Well, I think even Liza and Tama could do it
Anyway
–It's a checkmate
